Planted about 8 unknown African sativa strain seeds alongside my 2 feminised autos. I realise these photoperiod plants will create headaches come flowing time alongside the autos, but it is really just to spread the risk and see how the different plants react as I learn. I will likely discard or isolate the photoperiods when their light needs change. I have loads of unknown sativa seeds so plan on using these as cannon fodder. Middle of winter here in Western Cape, South Africa, my plan is to move from inside cupboard to grow tent in the garage, once the weather warms up in the next few weeks. After some initial problems with seed medium, I got a good batch to sprout.

Bubblegum + Pro auto in late flower - a week ago some purpling of the buds but not many of the leaves, maybe 2 or 3. Plant healthy all through flowering, regular waterings with BioPhos https://hydroherbafrica.co.za/product/cannabiz-range/. Nights down to 10 C. Any concerns?

Thanks for the feedback guys.. Helps bring the anxiety levels down during these final stages! In the past week I have since stopped nutrients (past 2 waterings) to get a flush going. More purpling all over on buds, sugar leaves seem fine - more purpling on the bottom fan leaves so seems more late flowering / phosphorus related. The buds have swollen up massively in the past couple of weeks so not too worried. I plan to harvest in 2 days or so. Looks and smells fantastic, can consider this resolved.

Hello johntyroads, It seems like your plants are doing well. Purpling may occur during cold nights and heavy temperature fluctuations, nothing to worry about. Good luck with your project, I wish you all the best! 👽

No worries. Looks very healthy, probably caused from low phosphorus. So much gets used in flowering. But if its just showing this late in flowering, you are fine, lots of people flush the last 2 weeks anyways. It'll just drain your fan leaves to start. Cold can also turn them purple but unless its below 5 degrees I never noticed much purple before. A few light frosts outside could do that too though.
